Anybody know right off hand about adjusting the chain tension? My chain is slack and jumps off pretty easily?

I haven't really checked it out. The chain jumped off a few times yesterday while me and my son were playing. I'll check it out this evening.Just thought somebody might know right off hand.

Page 17 of the manual seems to indicate the procedure:
